Beaver for the friends I've trapped with, Bobcats cause they bailed us out$, coyotes for the people I've helped, mink for fun, weasels from my youth, possums cause I left them,lions for the rush I get and a dog to add to everything!

Muskrats, I like the smell of a muskrat pelt. Next comes moles. I get a lot of satisfaction killing one as they try to ruin my lawn. Mink used to thrill me. Now I get more pleasure catching possums as they are delicious baked with sweet tators.

Muskrats have probably always been my favorite. The problem is that they have basically not existed in my area of southeast PA for the last twenty-thirty years. I really wish we had the numbers we used to.

So I target my second favorite; the red fox. Around here they are plentiful, easy to catch and easy to put up. I have found alternative markets for my catch and have been averaging around $16.00 while I see a bunch of folks letting there's go for $5.00-$6.00 averages at last season's Pennsylvania Trapper's Association auctions. I would stop trapping them before I sold them that cheap.

Animals.

Coyotes for land critters. Beaver are a blast for water critters. But I'm always pretty happy when I get an otter.

Coon.....they're the bass of the fur world. Easy to catch, looks good on camera....ain't worth a thing though.

Will always be muskrats

First has always been wolves.

Followed closely by wolverines.

Take THAT you muskrat wranglers......!

I never even tried to catch a wolverine but It would be pretty cool to catch one. Caught a couple of wolves and some lynx.
It would have to be beavers for me.

I guess whatever brings the most money at the time.

Mink then beaver

1-Lynx 2-wolves 3-wolverine 4-marten

Otter! Hands down!

Coyotes

These guys

Red fox/grey fox, cats then yotes. But nothing better than being on a big slough trapping a ton of rats
